You might be interested in the braces for the banana trunks. Bought a replacement boat trailer winch strap. Like seat belt material. Cut it up and sealed the cut ends with open flame. Took them to a seamstress and had loop ends sewed up with heavy thread. They will support the trunks without cutting in like rope, or a garrote. Regular HD poly rope tied from braces to marine galvanized 6" cleats on fence posts and Bobs your uncle - good for Cat 1 and 2 H'canes - but not for Wilma at cat 3. The 4x4 posts actually split open the cement footing in 2 dozen locs.
